6. How to win friends & influence people. How to stop worrying & start living.

How to win friends & influence people. How to stop worrying & start living. —by Dale Carnegie. (Category— Self Empowerment)

This book covers countless principles you could use to become a more likeable person & as the name suggests win others & influence a person's behaviour without having to fight or complain or making the other person argumentative.


"I think this book is, by far, one of the best books I've ever read. To be extremely honest, I was quite surprised by the name of the book, thinking how exactly can someone tell me 'how to win friends and influence people' , a phenomenon that is supposed to come to us naturally. As a person who has applied these principles in my day to day life, I was fortunately proven wrong. The principles like 'Avoid Arguments' which is emphasised in the very first chapter of the book seems vague when not supported with proper explanation but when you actually come to understand what the author was trying to explain, it seems quite practical and useful. For me, this book was life changing and I started to read a lot more of Dale Carnegie's books. It's safe to say, he never fails to astonish me with his brevity in explaning his point of views. If you REALLY want to win friends and influence people, I 100% recommend you to give this masterpiece a read!"



7. Zero to One

Zero to One. —by Blake Masters and Peter Thiel. (Category— Entrepreneurship)

Zero to One is a book by Peter Thiel who shares the lessons he learned by founding & selling PayPal & becoming a billionaire. It is a must read book for entrepreneurs & whoever plans on owning a start up.


"Zero to one by Peter thiel:


This book mainly focuses on building a new business or to improve the pre-existing #business.


Peter Thiel, co-founder of #Paypal makes an attempt to bring out that the monopolistic firm performs better than the perfectly competitive firms.

Example: #Google a monopolistic and #Airline US company a perfectly competitive firm.

Furthermore, if there is over the competition then the people will copy from what has been done from the past.


The first few pages are very interesting that he explains what 0 to 1 means. Precisely, when we go creating something new we will move forward in vertical line whereas almost everyone moves from 1 to n and it means we move in horizontal line when we add some modifications to an existing one.


This book mainly focuses on #monopolistic firms.

Peter Thiel says that there should not be the same kind of products also it is easy for anyone to make homogeneous #products. People will also not buy the same kind of products every time, they will expect something new and their #demand will increase for the things which are indeed new so if we #invent something new then eventually there will be an increase in demand.


#Perfectcompetitive #firms should have an equilibrium that is the supply should be equal to demand but many firms fail to deliver he justifies this by an example that if we start a #restaurant at mountain view in California like a middle-class man one who starts a business over there will give an investment in lower rate, he employs a grandma for register and he employs some kids for washing the dishes and aims a profit. Unfortunately, he will fail to earn a profit. As a result, he has to close the firm so this is how Peter Thiel explains the perfect competitive firms.


In addition, he explains how the #cashflow works. Cash flow is significant in the work that he compares by giving an example of Twitter and the New York Times.


Overall this book has covered various lessons from tech entrepreneurs and integrated it with economics. I recommend this book by giving a rating of 4.5/5

Commodities For Dummies. —by Amine Bouchentouf. (Category— Commodities)

This book is a great choice for beginners as it describes commodities briefly along with the vital information required to trade them.


"A definite good read!

The book arrived promptly and because of the subject matter and zero experience with commodities, I struggled to get through it.

Commodities trading is definitely in my future but, I just dabbling with some practice scenarios before jumping in. Thanks."
